Ace of Spades Pet Thread, February 7

* * *
Good afternoon and welcome to the almost world famous Ace of Spades Pet Thread. Thanks for stopping by. Kick back and enjoy the world of animals.
Would you like a treat?
Let's relax a little with the animals and leave the world of politics and current events outside today.

Meet The PetMorons
Message relayed by a lurker:
"I regret nothing!"
A bird with a sense of self!

Former lurker…. This is Benny, some sort of hybrid (he is much too elegant for mutt or pound hound) and his new best friend, Zuri, our new Rhodesian Ridgeback. Zuri follows Benny like a shadow which Benny might eventually accept or even enjoy, but right now I think he wishes he could loose her.

Well, I am used to seeing Rhodesian Ridgebacks in a larger size. I love the photo of Zuri with Benny! Nice to see you de-lurk, DML!

We have lived on the Tennessee River for the past 11 years, but had surprise visitors this year. A flock of American White Pelicans has taken up residence on the sand bar near our house. There are at least 50 of them. They arrived about two weeks ago and are still hanging around. Apparently not normal behavior as they usually migrate further west of us on their way to the Gulf of America. Here are a couple pics.

An impressive sight! Thanks for sending in photos.
We are starting to get some cranes in our area. Haven't had them around for a while.

If you start feeling nostalgic, here a link to last week's Pet Thread, the Ace of Spades Pet Thread, January 31
I closed the comments on that post so you wouldn't get banned for commenting on a week-old post, but don't try it anyway.
